These 16 patch blocks were made as 4 patches and then put together as a larger 4 patch.   Most of these fabrics were from left over pieces of other quilts.   When I have leftovers, often I take time here and there to cut them into usable sizes.   Sometimes, I do leave larger pieces for applique.  However

I make mistakes, especially when I am in a hurry.  Last night was one of those times.  I was in a hurry to get the block made and instead of cutting 2 7/8″ blocks for the triangles, I merrily went my way cutting 2.5″ blocks.   Then I realized that was not going to work.   Not to worry however, now I have many dark green blocks cut for the next time I need 2.5″ blocks.   Mistakes happen and when they do, I just try to make the best of them.

Have a blessed Sabbath tomorrow.   We will have company joining us for lunch.
